1 answer

Some ways to hinder the decomposition process include:

- Placing processed foods in airtight containers or packaging that prevents air circulation. Decomposition requires oxygen, so limiting its availability can slow down the process.
- Leaving vegetable peels intact instead of chopping them into smaller pieces. Breaking down larger pieces takes more time and resources for microorganisms to decompose.
- Removing apple cores and other fruit pits, which are harder and slower to decompose compared to the rest of the fruit.
- Dry grass clippings before adding them to a compost pile. Moisture is essential for decomposition, so drier grass clippings will decompose slower than wet ones.
